acquiring a competitive edge Explanation: How you say the “adquisición” part would very much depend on the rest of the sentence, but “acquiring” is one option, if it’s similar to the following examples. I would say “edge” rather than advantage (see no. 5, below). edge adj : at or constituting a border or edge; "the marginal strip of beach" [syn: {edge(a)}, {fringe(a)}, {fringy}, {marginal}] n 1: the boundary of a surface [syn: {border}] 2: a line determining the limits of an area [syn: {boundary}, {bound}] 3: a sharp side formed by the intersection of two surfaces of an object; "he rounded the edges of the box" 4: the attribute of urgency; "his voice had an edge to it" [syn: {sharpness}] 5: a slight competitive advantage; "he had an edge on the competition In this environment, size alone will not be the decisive means for acquiring a competitive edge. Rather, success will come through the ability to secure new markets speedily and resolutely by focusing the business and reshaping products and channels to market. http://www.pwcglobal.com/extweb/service.nsf/8b9d788097dff3c9...$FILE/act_now.pdf A well-designed, systematically executed account profile form can be one of your most powerful strategies for acquiring a competitive edge. http://www.davekahle.com/profile.htm Hope it helps.
